- FCODE is the binary file encoder/decoder of the *ONETIME* file security
- package. This is the actual program that encodes and decodes binary or text
- files. When encoding, it creates a file consisting of binary numbers in the
- range of 0h to FFh (0 - 255 decimal). This is fine for encrypted files to be
- transferred on magnetic media (diskettes, tape, removable HD's, etc.), or for
- transmission by modem, but NOT suitable for printing out as hard-copy or for
- faxing. Use the companion program TCODE for more general coding of text
- files. Note that TCODE does not work on binary files.
-
- FCODE will usually be invoked from the batch files FENCODE and FDECODE. It
- can also function as a stand-alone utility. Type: fcode e to encode the file
- named plain.txt. Type: tcode d to decode the file named encr.xxx. Using the
- batch files FENCODE and FDECODE (recommended) eliminates the need to rename
- the files to be encoded or decoded.
-
- WARNING: if using FCODE as a stand-alone utility (not recommended), the files
- plain.txt and code.key must already be present in the working directory.
- Using the batch files provided for the purpose, FENCODE and FDECODE is much
- easier.
-
- The C source for FCODE is included for programmers wishing to use or modify
- it. This requires the permission of the author, which can easily be
- obtained.
